Pros and cons

This application gives you the ease you need to facilitate your learning on cloud solutions and tech. The simplicity makes learning fun as well.
The quick topic videos along with the labs and tests are great for someone like me that is working on passing certifications for additional job opportunities.
I am very happy I enrolled and I will keep on doing so. I have learnt a lot about the different services offered by the cloud vendors and this will definitely help me in my professional career.
It can be a little annoying to go back through your learning path to go over things you skipped.
There is a lack of Microsoft cloud cert training plans.
Nothing (sometimes the larger videos are lacking) but I guess this is bandwidth limitation.

Great resource for the certification exams and good coursed

Reviewed 2 years ago

It was extremely useful for bringing me up to speed on new technology, in my opinion. With learning routes for each of the three main cloud providers and training courses for relevant cloud technology, it has been a fantastic resource. I have a strong desire to invest plenty of time in training programs.

Pros

Even complete beginners can easily navigate the courses and pick up useful knowledge thanks to the course material's wide selection of carefully chosen training programs at different levels. I really enjoy the Dashboard function, which displays my current location, exam results, and my learning trajectory.And the main part is they provide labs also.

Cons

If you could add the condensed PDF version of the lectures, I would greatly enjoy it. And inn my opinion, the DevOps module may be shortened shorter to maintain the user's attention.

Overall great experience

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

Best part is available across multiple platform - web based, Android App. Also it is available offline for your review and accessing anytime.

Cons

Found issues in in sync between Mobile (Android app) and Browser based. Had to complete couple of modules twice to get credit. That was something I observer at the beginning of the course and later it worked as expected though. Also observer few things not available in mobile platform - hope future version will take care of this.

Amazing training courses online

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

Cloud Academy provides quality training that is available just with a web browser or even mobile device, with lots of practical and relevant exercises, hand-on labs and nice video. I love the labs provided by Cloud Academy, at the beginning not easy for me to solve, but very practical and bringing a lot of satisfaction when done!

Cons

Sometimes individual sessions in some training courses are a bit too long and once or twice my progress on mobile device got de-synchronized with progress in web browser.

Vendor response

Hi Konrad, thank you for the great review! The discrepancy between app and browser has now been fixed.

Amazing for GCP Exam Prep

Reviewed 4 years ago

Very positive and would definitely keep using it

Pros

The learning paths are great! I like how you can set your schedule and due dates. The transcripts are also helpful when I'm not in a mood to watch the video. The courses are structured in a way that make me feel comfortable learning.

Cons

Some of the labs aren't as concise as others and some courses are outdated. I would also like a way to save notes and frames from the video I'm watching like Coursera

Greate opportunities to learn aboud cloud computing

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

A lot of courses are available about diffrent platforms such as AWS, Azure, Google . My favourite are laboratories where you can really do sth for ex. at AWS platform. I have done two tracks: Cloud Fundamentals and AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification Preparation. Both were really interesting.

Cons

Some courses were a bit outdated, and too long. If tutorial/lectures takes more than an hour, it is quite long.

Vendor response

Hi Agata, thank you for the review. The Cloud Practitioner Learning Path was updated on November 13th in case you wanted to check it out again. Cheers!

I love to use CA when I can every single week. I have time blocked off just to study.

Nothing. I love everything about the software and how the UI is setup

Usage Review After Preparation for Associate Level Solution Architect Course

Reviewed 4 years ago

Fantastic experience. Really Helpful for the preparation.

Pros

1. The Hand-On Lab and no cost worry about my own AWS account usage and cost 2. The Some areas are covered in depth like VPN , Bastion Host , NO-SQL

Cons

1. Repetition of course material in some areas are monotonous. 2. Some real life scenarios can add some extra spice to your course. (May be some familiar examination questions can be discussed in details) 3. All the areas must be covered with equal importance. 4. More practice exam should be introduced with an option to pause the exam.
